Most leaks are not the field of the roof. They are penetrations and transitions - step flashing at walls, pipe boots, valleys, chimney counterflashing. A roof can look sound and still leak at a boot that has gone brittle.
Long cooling seasons and heavy summer rain drive the two problems we see most here: moisture getting into assemblies, and anything that traps it staying wet.
A tear-off versus an overlay is not just cost. A second layer hides the decking, so soft sheathing stays buried, and it holds heat that shortens the new shingles' life.
What the job includes
- Full tear-off and replacement
- Leak diagnosis and targeted repair
- Flashing, valley and boot replacement
- Decking repair and ventilation
- Metal and low-slope systems
- Storm damage documentation for claims
